I love the added touch of the doilies to the chair. It reminds me of Grandma's house.

I love how this turned out! I never could've guessed how much trouble it caused you.

Love the chair and ottoman.

@laurawiles410 Ай бұрын

Granny will love her new chair and ottoman. They're so pretty and feminine!🥰 The doilies are a great touch- Granny probably crocheted them herself. 🧶

Your idea for the center of the pouf on the footstool is everything! You, my dear girl. are on a role.

They look so adorable! I love that you’re so open and honest even making a mistake. It’s helps me not to be so hard on myself when I don’t do something perfectly

Thank you for letting me know you are enjoying this! At one point I thought not to share it because everything was looking so crazy! But the truth is everything doesn't have to be PERFECT and Flawless to be a TREASURE!💖💖💖💖☺️ THANKS for being Here!

Howdy and good evening to you Miss Gretchen ... just watched and OMGoodness just too cute. Love the ottoman and the doilies and granny's chair. Thanks for sharing.

@nancyring8104 Ай бұрын

Oh my goodness!! My grandma had doilies like that with little twirly pins to hold them in place!! I loved the chair before, but now, with the ottoman and doilies, it’s perfect!!😍❤️

@tubegoob1 Ай бұрын

I'm going to pretend you used the doilies because I suggested it. 😁 Granny probably needs a lumbar pillow and a quilt, too. And a cat for her lap.

Love the ottoman and the chair💕💕 The doilies are made for the chair. Perfect ❣

Oh you clever girl! So smart! The problem of the wood circle was no problem at all!! The stool is just perfect but I just about DIED OF DARLING when you added the doilies. They turned a cute chair into SOMEONE'S cute chair. And we know a little detail like that makes a huge difference! 🥰✨

The ottoman looks great, perseverance really does pay off, especially when coupled with a talent like yours! I so love those doilies, reminds me of my grandmothers on both sides of my family so long ago when I was little.

@panacheluxury4262 Ай бұрын

I can't get over how adorable the chair and ottoman are. You helped me solve the dilemma on footstools for my Dollhouse. So, thank you for that! It is amazing what you can do with cylinders from foil, paper towels and toilet paper rolls. The doilies were an excellent purchase and add so much to the chair. My Grandmother loved doilies and I am so grateful I inherited many of them. The wedding is really shaping up.

@graceh8866 Ай бұрын

Gretchen I’ve many of the same mistakes I’m getting ready to make a new couch and chairs so I’m going to need these tutorials 🤣🤣😂😂💕💕

@marygatdula2744 Ай бұрын

I'm so glad you added the doilies to the chair! They are exactly what was needed. I love the little ottoman, and the button center is the perfect touch! I wish I was building the kind of house that could use both the chair and ottoman, but mine goes way, way back in the past and is fantasy. But who knows, if it's fantasy, can't I make it however I want it to be? Hmmmmm. I'd appreciate some opinions!

@littlegretchensworkshop7665 Ай бұрын

Thank You Mary! I believe your dollhouse can be whatever you want 😀! There are no rules! You are only limited by your own imagination!☺️💖 Although the time setting of my doll house is somewhere between 1901 and 1910 there are multiple things that break the rules of that time period but I don't care care. I'm not interested in being historically, mechanically or architecturally correct! I'm Having FUN!! So whatever I deem as fun is CORRECT!!!!💖💖💖💖💖💖💖☺️😀😂🤣😂! ENJOY YOUR DOLL HOUSE AND MAKE IT ANY WAY YOU WISH!!!

@marygatdula2744 Ай бұрын

@littlegretchensworkshop7665 Thank you, Gretchen! I've seen so many cute things that I've wanted to make but didn't because of the time period. I've thought many times to forget there was such a thing, LOL, and I think I will do just that. After all, it's for me. It's not going to a museum! 😁

@@marygatdula2744 EXACTLY MARY! THAT'S WHY SOMETIMES I WOULD LAUGH SAYING THAT I WAS BREAKING ALL THE LAWS OF DOLL HOUSING AND THAT, I may be in danger of being fined or summoned by the Dollhouse police 🚨🚓!🤣🤣😂🤣🤭

So cute! That dimple and button are everything! I love vintage doilies! I’ve cut mini doilies from old full-size doilies that have seen better days! I’ve also made them by cutting up old lace. What’s a grandma chair without doilies? LOL! Thanks, Gretchen! ❤Kathleen

@midvaleminis9736 Ай бұрын

I really like the way the dimple looks on the ottoman, and then the addition of the button is fantastic!!! Makes a lovely little set :)

Hello Gretchen, the little foot stool is lovely, I love the doily antimacassars on the armchair there so cute, my Grandad had them on his furniture, probably to stop his Brill creme staining the fabric. It really does look like a Grannies chair now. Have a lovely rest of the week. Best Wishes from Yorkshire, England 🇬🇧 😊

It does look just like my Nana’s chair! I can see her knitting basket at the side, on the floor. Have you made any knitting baskets yet? You probably have of course but I’m sure I’d remember seeing the video, I’ve seen them all! If not, I’d like to send you one I made from England ❤❤❤
